The arrogrant and clueless Tad Devine

Devine was just on MSNBC and was asked if Hillary has the lead in pledge delegates would it be fair for Sanders to win the nomination based on the support of super delegates who could put him over the top.

Devine replied that it would be fair because the super delegates must vote for what is good for the party.

Of course, if they vote for Hillary then they are just selfish corporate shills!

Which is why they overwhelmingly support Hillary. The superdelegates kinda know who the Democrat in the race is.

clueless. It is much worse. He knows exactly what SDs are for because he helped to create the system.

At best, he's being disingenuous. At worst, he is deliberately giving the M$M (they are the clueless ones, IMO) the ammunition they need to continue declaring the Dem race close. This is not the case. Bernie is losing now and will continue to lose.

The likelihood of ANY of Hillary's SDs switching is nil ... unless by some wholly unexpected fluke Bernie miraculously makes up the 210+ delegate deficit he now has and then actually pulls ahead of her. The likelihood that the majority of uncommitted SDs would support the candidate who does NOT have the majority of pledged delegates is also nil. No matter what Tad says; no matter what MSNBC or any of the other craven M$M sources report. Period.

But I'll agree with you 150% that Tad is arrogant. And so is Bernie. Together they are creating divisions where none existed before and for that I will not forgive either one.

As long as he has access to the gravy train, he will convince Sanders he can win.
